Try Collinite #845 Insulator wax. It does a fantastic job on the paint. It also works good on the plastic, rubber and other trims. One guy on here says it does a good job on glass also.

Cool

Yea, a small brush and elbow grease. But, as much as I don't really like it for paint, Turtle Wax Ice is very good for plastic trim, rubber, chrome....
